- Two dragons that scavenge for armour - one for bones, one for metal. Could they be the same dragon?

those poor dragons who find out their dead grandma is being worn by a boneknapper.
Joshua Fuhrman Oh Damn.
Just like Cubone
Oof imagine that in a literal setting
You donned your hauberk, grabbed your shield and sword, wore your helm, went onto war only to see a warrior wearing an armour of bone and you recognized your relatives bones since you saw your family grave was pillaged and it boils you in horro and rage causing you to charge the bastard out of fear and hatred
damian kaiserclaw you would probably be absolutely anhialated
@@telesto4099 a metal armor would probably resist a sword blow better than bones (if it's a war before guns were invented) or a bulletproof vest would stop better bullets and pieces of frag granade better than bones (if it is a modern war), so the bone-wearer is more likely to die than you
There are a lot of dragons that look similar, so similar they have to be related.
Sand Wraith, Woolly Howl, Night fury, and Light fury
Nadder and Scuttleclaw
Mishka and Bewilderbeast
*Gasp*
All hail mishka
Yup. What actually happens here is that the cgi artists are lazy and just edit the model of a dragon slightly and make it a new one but it’s fun to put them together.
Scuttleclaw is literally a cross between a Nadder and a Zippleback
god damn your good
I feel the monstrous nightmare was also in that family as the species look quite similar and the nightmares defence is it setting fire to body.However its armour isn't too weak but that may be a result of having their only defence as a bit of fire, and as some dragons are immune to firer it needed better defence in it's skin as any armour could ruin their fire ability. They also have the same sort of wings and it's egg starts with a golden colour and finishes with a green one in rise of berk.
If you want to go further back all three had a common ancestor, but Group A had stronger scales that were resistant to their ignitable gel for their fire armor, while Group B had weaker scales - probably due to some random mutation - and they kept burning/eroding their scales to the point where they were no longer as functional as normal dragon scales. Group A developed into what we know now as Monstrous Nightmares. Group B went on to be the ancestor to Boneknappers and Armor Wings. Group B lost their ability to produce gel, but still maintained its special skin/secretion. Group C is the Boneknappers and Group D is the Armor Wings. Group C developed a secretion to help keep the bones in place so they couldn't be knocked off as easily (or they lost the secretion altogether), and Group D developed the gel into a substance that was more magnetic, which developed into the magnetic like skin for Armor Wings.
swag wolf Theres also a theory that Boneknapper's skin is covered with liquid that sticks the bone armor together and Monstrous Nightmare has skin covered with flamable liquid, maybe these two things evolved from one?
swag wolf was about to comment something like this, but it seems you did it for me, thanks
swag wolf Maybe the MonstrousNightmare was a common ancestor of the ArmorWing and Boneknapper or all 3 had a common ancestor so maybe some monstrous nightmares lived in places with dragon bones or metal. Or the common ancestors lived in different place so some became wyverns/MonstrousNightmares and used fire as their armor and some lived in places with metal or bones. They all look almost the same the MonstrousNightmare has the horns and even the the nose hook. I just really like this sort of stuff it's based on Darwinian Evolution
the Armor Wing's breath is a welding torch, they weld it to their skin, or at least the other metal on their skin.
"They probably shared an ancestor that had golden eggs..."
The golden goose?
Scrollreader
Golden chicken
Hesperornis?
Makes sense to me!
Golden dragon?
No golden dragon and golden goose mixed golden droose or golden googon
These two dragons just got a whole lot cooler.
Not the armorwing. That one got hotter.
@@A._Person wtf
Butter Skywalker wtf u
Yep
@@A._Person 🤭
in dragon Legends,in the book of dragons episode gobber says "changewings have venerable skin so some of them use objects they find as armour like the boneknapper"
aaaaaand group C developed a biological armour of substance secreted from their skin hardening it to the level of other dragons and allowing themselves to be set ablaze (group C are monstrous Nightmares)
yea they look like the monstrous nighmares
Or the designing team got lazy 😂
I was just reading the comments so that I didn't post this same thing. That was the first thing I thought of while watching this video. Was pretty disappointed that he didn't point that out.
What is all three of them are closely related
they do look similar i'll give you that
I HAVE AN IDEA! the Monstrous Nightmare, Armour Wing, and Bone Knapper are all relating in what I call the Armour family The MN was the somewhat Original and It blew up in Fire but as the AW and BK moved to cooler environments and lack of Phosphorus in there areas they can't blow up but still Breath fire the AW just uses a different flame material. The reason why their skin is weak because it is Fire Proof not Sword proof so they realized as you said they could "weld " Metal to its Fire proof skin and The the BK as you said can't find metal and uses Large dead bones to Terrify it's victims. (this is to long)
I like that theory also AW and BK fire probably uses magnesium, the pyroclastic flow fire of the BK is just a more inefficient magnesium flame of the AW that heats up dust along with the flame. So, yes out of areas with phosphorus into areas with magnesium, this probably means the BK and AW in countered the deadly natter a lot more (since they use a magnesium flame) than the monstrous nightmare with the due to the spine, BK going stealth and intimation, and AW going armor wing going armor.
What about the Timberjack and Typhoomerang?? Do you think they could be related??
I always use to think that the boneknapper was made out of bones, just bones🤔🤣
In the original books bonenappers were made from only bone
I thought they were the only dragon with a bony exoskeleton
I thought it was a dead dragon
xenomorph hunter same I thought it was sort of a zombie dragon
i though it was a skeleton armour-wing
"Group A-rmourwing"
"Group B-oneknapper"
Do the zippleback
On why do they have two heads
YAAAAAAAAAASSS!!!!
Spark and gas.Snap trapper would be better,as they do not rely on four heads.
Benjamin Martell it'll probably be mentioned in race to the edge because it's more forest like than the parts of berk we see and probably have tuff and ruff be lured in by it
It’s for 2 reasons. 1. They need two heads to make the spark and gas that they use to defend themselves. 2. They need two brains
KENTONO TUMULAK what about the 4 headed dragon thats mouth smells like chocolate
do a theory about multiheaded dragons

Raide Amazing work I love it!
I have a question. Just how powerful is the night fury in its alpha mode. On dragonapedia it says the regular night fury has an attack of 8 but toothless in his alpha form was able to pierce the defence of the bewilderbeast. the bewilderbeast has a defence of 50. If so does that also mean that all night furies are able to go into alpha mode.
Great question! I will definitely get to it (but I need to read a comic first).

Can you tame a skrill
Chrstian Seymour all dragons can, as said in a book, which name I forget, but all dragons have this ability to make their attacks stronger, like a boost of adrenaline, but so far toothless is the only dragon to do it.
Scott Johnson screaming death is a titan wing whispering death
What's your favourite ability you've seen a dragon use so far? Mine would have to be the camouflage used by changewings.
~ Tim.
Hello Future Me plz plz can you do a draw my life
Hello Future Me I have a question:
So if Boulder class dragons eat mostly rocks and not much meat, could this be possible that their bodies (or some body parts, eg. skin) are actually built out of stone and minerals?
Oh, and my favourite dragon ability is that Catastrophic Quaken can roll to smash everywhing on its way or do this during flight so it falls down and creates a shockwave
Hello Future Me, My favorite dragon ability is the signature banshee scream of the flightmare
The speed of a speed stinger because I want to be fast for once in my life
Call me old-fashioned, but there's just something so fantastically "dragon-y" about the Monstrous Nightmare's ability to set itself on fire!
"I know what he did to me, HE STOLE MY BELT BUCKLE!!''
Hello again, Tim,
Yet another cool video. I agree with with the idea that both species had a common ancestor, but I have one problem with you theory: Chronology. Metallurgy did not exist on a large scale until around 4000 B.C., when methods of working with bronze became more widely known. Also, we have never seen dragons with the ability to smelt metal ores on their own. Therefore, this "armorwing-boneknapper ancestor" must have evolved into the current armorwing within the 5000 years between the time bronze became widespread and the time of Berk (roughly 1000 A.D.). While it is possible for the boneknapper and armorwing to have evolved from the same ancestor in this time frame, it is cutting it a bit close. Evolution normally takes place over tens of thousands of years just to make a few small changes. The change in fire type is not a small change. The time frame for a evolution would have to go as far back as 10,000 to 15,000 B.C. Thus, the question stands: how did the armorwing evolve?
The only way I can see this logically working is if the armorwing used non-metallic materials for armor until bronze and iron were discovered. Perhaps the armorwing once used a layer of pummice, a lightweight stone that melts well below the temperature of an oxygen-acetylene flame and can be found in Scandinavia's volcanically active regions. The melting point of pummice is surprisingly similar to bronze (990 and 950 C, respectively). Over time, mankind developed metallurgy, and the armorwings that came into contact with the bronze realized that their flame worked on that material too and used it. When iron was discovered, the armorwings saw that their flame was still effective enough to weld iron pieces together.
So . . . what do you think, Tim? Everyone else?
Again, loved the video, and good luck on exams!
Carlos T. Nice! I was wondering the same thing when it came to the Armourwings finding scrap metal around when metallurgy hadn't really been in effect yet 😄 I really like this explanation! Good on you for logically placing the timeline 😊
Hey Carlos! That's a really awesome theory as to how it fits into the metallurgy. Love it. There's a few historic discrepancies in the HTTYD world (for example, the Roman Empire still exists), so there's room for an earlier metallurgy, but your explanation is great. :)
~ Tim
Well the gronkles (forgot the spelling) can create gronkle iron. Most likely raided gronkle nests for the iron

Natalie Short KAAAAEWWWWWWWWWW
One of the animators of HTTYD specifically mentioned that most dragons of the franchise are based on the main dragons, i.e. the Deadly Nadder, Monstrous Nightmare, Gronkle, Hideous Zippleback and Night Fury. This probably also means dragons based on one another could be related. The Boneknapper and the Armourwing are clearly based on the Monstrous Nightmare. This could also mean the three of them and all other dragons based on the Nightmare are related. More examples of dragons being clearly based on main dragons: Light Fury, Night Light and Sand Wraith are Night Fury based while Catostrophic Quakens and Hotburples are based on the Gronkle. There are also mixes, like Razorwhip body of a Monstrous Nightmare and it's head being based on a Zippleback while its abilities are of a Nadder.
All hail lord MISHKA every time you grace us with your beautify is a time of great rejoice
Yes Lord MISHKA is God!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You: Why don’t dragons like the Bone Knapper!?
Dragon: AAAAAAHHHHHHH MY BONES! HELP ME!!!
Here is a simpler theory I'm sorry if it's not that good
What is the bone napped lived in a dragon grave yard and only had bones to make armour out of
And the armour wing only had metal to build armour out of
And the two dragons had to adapt to the invermients
I did some research and the bone napper also has weak pale green skin and it also lives in dragon grave yards
Next dragon tournament idea, Triple stryke vs speed stinger chief, and maybe some bodyguards for the speed stinger underdog
P.S: ALL HAIL MISHKA, OUR NEW OVERLORD
in dragons race to the eage when hiccup disscovers the dragon eye and you first get to see what it does in the middle you see drago's symble the th fist
Just so you know, us heathens appreciate you translating our measurements from yours!
Wolf of Mercury I was probably gonna spend the next 5 min on Google
Wolf of Mercury honestly the metric system is A LOT easier to understand compared to the "heathens" system. (Yes im american)
Could you make a video where you talk about the Red death
The first time i saw these two dragons i saw the similarity
Thanks for another video ! ❤
Wooh! Thanks for watching
cool theory. I agree that a lot of that makes sense, though id like to note my own theory. Bones have existed ask lone as there have been vertebrate creatures. I think the Boneknapper might BE the common ancestor. (maybe making armor at all in similarities to an insect's exoskeleton or even like a rumble horn which looks like a beetle) Armorwings likely came about through evolution and adaptation centuries ago, when a family of boneknappers were taken or driven out of their home.(like the nest of speed stingers that developed webbed feet to cross water) The greener skin would have come about from their need to camoflauge in their new forested home and for a time, they probably still used dragon bones, but after Viking explorations introducing hardened metal in the form of weapons, which could break or cut through bones and probably used the bodies of killed dragons, taking the skeletons they so needed for armor. When that happened, they eventually used the scrap metal of old weapons laying around to make a new armor, developing the oxygen-acetylene flames eventually to better hold said armor together, and even fill in those gaping holes that the bones leave open. As you said, we don't even know what exactly a boneknapper's flames are made from, so it may not be that big of a change, and could have been formed from a change in diet from living in a different terrain.

@@Aj-zq2rk nope -p-
Group A=Armourwing Group B=Boneknappe
Coincidence?????
Group C=Constrous Nightmare
good video thank you for expanding apon this idea keep up the good work
It seems that armorwings evolved from prehistoric bone knappers, taking advantage of metal made by humans. So it didn't have to be scary anymore so it became smaller and lost its roar
MISHKA is cute

All Hail Mishka !!!
Nice vid!!
Future, you have helped me learn what I know today about How to train your dragon
I think the Armorwing is half Boneknapper and half Monstrous Nightmare, even though the Boneknapper lives alone. it could have been the reason cuz the facial features of the Armorwing, to me, have some of the same facial features as the Monstrous Nightmare
Thats true the bone napper and armerwing have the same mold as the nightmare
Commander Toughclaws I believe all three are deffintly the same Genus if not the same Species.
For a second there I thought armor wing was a dragon from wings of fire.
I agree it's like a mudd wing and a sand wing or something like that
I always thought they were always the same dragon but with different interest of armor
Changewings are cool to tim, and also I love your videos so I liked and subscribed to this video
Could they be the same dragon only different genders
How would they reproduce then?
@@riabliobe2944 like this 👌👈
We saw female boneknappers at the end of Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon and they have bones, not armor
All my friends r heathens take it slow
hey great vid hope you have a good day :D
love the vids
So many heathen conversions 😂 I apologize for us Americans and our defiant exploits. We just want to be different, I guess ^.^
Also, good luck on your exams! I took an AP World History exam about a week ago and it was a nightmare. Regular class exams are coming up in a few weeks, so I understand your stress ❤️ Keep working hard. And drink lots of tea. Tea is fantastic.
we Americans want to be different .
Hahaha I just like to make fun of you guys a little bit ;) You'll come around to the metric system soon enough. And thanks! It's only mid-years, so it won't be as stressful as my end of years in November. Tea IS fantastic.
~ Tim
Briana Allbright sometime during the 1900's some congress officials said since most of the world was using the metric system and that it would be potentially cause the other methods of measurements to be forgotten in the future so they voted on keeping it intact so the method wouldn't die out. I remember hearing about this in my history class watching a documentary.
We heathens partly like that being applied to the Chief if you plz sir Lol but it stings that you used it 3 times.
why is degrees F higher than degrees C? IK England was founded before USA so I guess C came first. it makes the boiling 30C look like a freezing -2C.
Could the night fury have a tighten wing form ppppllllllzzzz do a video on it
I think you mean Titan wing... not tighten wing
I think that the alpha toothless form is the titan wing of nightfurys since toothless activated this mode before he was the alpha since he used it while fighting the alpha that makes it a titan not an alpha form
"What did the boneknapper ever do to you?!"
Me: kill them...eat them...use their bones as armor. I'm just rolling out some possibilities.
A nice way of showing how a loss of function mutation in flame heat (reduced it) forces the surviving individuals to be better adapted by developing/accumulating fear tactic mutations. Well, at least one way of looking into it
plz do a draw my life like or comment if you agree
Hmmm... should I?
~ Tim
yep
Emma Bainbridge yep, he should
Hello Future Me idk
Hello Future Me yes plz I'm a big fan plz out me comment on the screen when you do it
I really think you should have that as a shirt to the mishka and toothess fans ALL HAIL MISHKA
Perhaps the green coloration of the Titan armorwing could be oxidizing impurities in the metal dyeing the skin and the boneknapper is the red-orange color is the normal color gained through Titan growth due to not having metal interactions
if you look at the bone napper and armourwings feet you can see at the knee they both have spikes and at the heals
2 years late but yeah I saw that too
My dads birthday is tomorrow. Not asking for likes but...eh.
Mr DumDum same lol
your dad's birthday, this is really the worst likes scavenging, it's not even your own birthday
Stop calling Americans heathens hello future me
He's just trying to joke around. I think it's funny (and yes i'm american).
the bonaper and the armorwing are both in the mystery class
Carter Wheeless I'm Canadian.
Carter Wheeless i think its funny, i use the Metric System all the time and my dad yells at me, that darn "heathen"
right it’s disrespectful
I never thought I would be interested in the lore of how to train your dragon
Good luck on your exams, my brother is starting his GCSEs now so that's pretty cool I guess, also don't worry if you don't upload as often we don't mind.
I really appreciate him putting in Fahrenheit too
Perhaps the boneknapper developed it's "boneness" to scare other dragons and be able to hide (as if the dragon were actually dead), and the armourwing used it's environment to hide and make it stronger instead. Both of these developments could be the result of the softer skin.
The Thunderdrum and its abilities are one of my favorites.
My favourite is the tale attack used by the triple strick!!
I like the Boneknappers they are adorable as newly hatched baby dragons. I should know I have trained Boneknappers in the Minecraft How To Train Your Dragon mod and some payed eggs. I went to get bones to get them armor. They were adorable. I used Bewilder beast bones I found.
I love your videos and I just have one question for you that mabey you could include in a video is why are the sand sanswraiths tidal class dragon
Spilled soup on my chair this morning... Toasty as the singed ground with a sleeping Night Fury on top.
All hail mishka and you are calling me a heathen MICROAGGRESION
Holy crap, you're actually on Wattpad? I'd be sure to check out your account even though your books are not typically my style.
I think that the bone napper uses the bones more as a skin than armor, so I think that they can't roar because it could possibly hurt them to do so without ask of there bones like how it hurts to move a dislocated shoulder, they can't "talk" or roar without it causing them damage or like it had it so they have like a sore throat or something. Either that or when they roar it leaves part of there unprotected skin available to predators or enemies
If you look closely at the skin under the bone on that episode on that Netflix show and the episode was called “Legend of the boneknapper” you can see it has green skin like the armourwing?
Good luck in your exams :). I'm doing my mock exams next week!
Good luck!
~ Tim
Hello future me what dragon bones are the bone nappers using because the skull it wears is all one peace meaning one big dragon
monsteres nightmares are also in the family because they look the same but with scals and maybe they have goldon eggs too? so it makes sense?
also i like that they also have the same pair of horns, one horn shoter than the other:))
Awesome video and All Hail MISHKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's the website you go on to find all this information about dragons?
Love the video, not so much the music. All the best with the exams!!!
Ah, yeah. I'm trying to find non-copyright music to use, but it's surprisingly hard. Thanks for you support!
~ Tim
That would also explain why the Boneknappers developed that scream and became bigger. That way they are even more terrifying
How can you explain the boneknapper not having certain abilities without full armor?
Nice vid
I would’ve thought of the armorwing as more of a subspecies of boneknapper that evolved to take advantage of scrap metal taken from human settlements due to being better than bone
I love the changewing as well. Am i the only one that is obsessed with the httyd soundtrack? 😂 I love watching your httyd vids :P
I feel that the monstrous nightmare is the ancestor of both the armour wing and the bone knapper as they both look similar to it. They probably evolved into their own separate species from the monstrous nightmare.
armourwings and monstrous nightmares both must be realted. They look so darn alike!
I had no idea you were from New Zealand to!
Hi from home!
I love your channel. You should have way more subscribers than you do.
You're too kind :)
~ Tim
They also look like hook fang ( i forgot the accrual name ) can you please make a video about that
doesent the monstrous nightmare have a simmular apperance too? just whith a back thing and one more pair of horns? altho not as simular as those two.
do a theroy on the Gronkel. Like how can it fly since its wings are tiny but the body shape is huge
I think this theory is amazing
If you have time, could you do some of the creatures from Monster hunter?
I always saw similaritys between the Armorwing and the Monstrous Nightmare. But of course, it also looks a lot like the Bonenapper.
Um... in the short film the bone knapper was introduced in it was revealed that it also needed its armor so that it could roar
My favorite dragon ability is blending in with surroundings. I have seen this from a Changewing.
I'm almost 13 and I still love this
I think it would be cool if the Boneknapper and Armorwing family went though some adaptive radiation and developed a bunch of different species that where different armours example Arborwing wears tree bark and moss to camouflage itself in the forest or the Eel snatcher it catches eels and wears their corpses to scare away other dragons.
soooooooo in the episode legend of the boneknapper why did it need that bone to roar?
Could the thunder drum and bone naper be related? They both have roars that can be attacks
I don't even see the movies but I find this interesting
